Strobilomyces glabriceps is a species of bolete fungus in the family Suillaceae found in China. It was described as new to science in 1948 by Wei-Fan Chiu. The type collection was made in Kunming in June, 1938. Fruit bodies have convex brown caps measuring up to 10 cm (3.9 in) in diameter. The surface is initially smooth, but becomes cracked as the bolete ages. Tubes on the cap underside are 2–2.5 cm (0.8–1.0 in) long, while the large angular pores are 4–5 mm across. Spores are spherical or nearly so, and measure 9–11 µm.[1]
